• Ambient Air Quality Standard WHO Air Quality Guideline for Particulate Matter
• Emission Standard
• US: The Clean Air Act requires EPA to set National Ambient Air Quality
Standards for pollutants considered harmful to public health and the
environment --> identifies two types of standards
• Primary standards provide public health protection, including protecting the health
of "sensitive" populations such as asthmatics, children, and the elderly
• Secondary standards provide public welfare protection, including protection against
decreased visibility and damage to animals, crops, vegetation, and buildings
• Thailand: ambient standards are not based solely on air quality criteria, but
are also based on a broad range of economic, social, technical, political
considerations
